Daily Links and Deals: London prisoners to get free ‘Books in Nicks’

Today, a story about a new initiative to bring books to prisoners in London jails. Also, Amazon launches the Kindle Reading Fund, citizens are asked to open their WiFi to help with the earthquake rescue in Italy and more. Today’s deals include a Lenovo laptop and deals on Daredevil comics.

(A note on Daily Deals: All prices current at the time of posting and subject to change. Most items marked Daily Deals are good for only the day posted.

Many large promotions have discount pricing that is set by the publisher. This usually means that titles can be found at a discount price across most platforms (with iTunes sometimes being the exception). If you have a favorite retailer you like to patronize, check the title on that website. There is a good chance that they will be matching the sale price.)

Daily Links are interesting links I discover as I go about my online day. The frequency and number of links posted depend upon the daily news. I also post other, different links of interest on Twitter,Facebook, and on the Google Plus eBook Evangelist Page.

That was the article’s title, not mine. I thought locals or area residents would have been a clearer term.But I can’t argue with the fact that all members of those communities are victims of the earthquake and have a lot more to worry about than WiFi settings.

I’m still working on the print books. I haven’t read a print book for years but have a hard time letting go. Tried purging, but I am still feeling guilty for sending giving away all my SF books. 😦 And I have no idea what to do with my cookbook collection….
